Method

Pre-heat oven to 160˚C/325˚F/gas mark 3. Mix the red onion with the garlic, vinegar and sugar. Set aside for at least 20 minutes.

Heat a griddle pan until very hot. Toss the fennel in a little olive oil and season well. Grill each fennel wedge for a few minutes until lightly charred. This can be done in batches. Allow to cool.

Toss the bread chunks in a tablespoon of olive oil with the rosemary and chilli. Place on a baking tray and into the oven for 10 minutes or until the bread is lightly browned and crisp.

Toss the fennel with the bread, peppers, salmon and leaves. Fold through the onions and place in a serving bowl. Sprinkle with the chives and parmesan. Drizzle with good olive oil.
